SWEET POTATO SALAD

I liked this recipe, because it had a great taste. I got it, in the mail. It was on the back of checks unlimited. It had a good color photo. I will make this again. It is a great one for the holidays. I did not use, but one pound of sweet potatoes,which equal to one potato. I did not have Dijion mustard, but the mustard i had made it turn out wonderful anyway.
